Blinken reveals what everyone should have already known. The US knew war in Ukr was inevitable and so the US was piling weapons and equipment into Ukr long before the war started.

The reason they knew war was inevitable was because Rus told them it was if they tried to push Ukr into NATO.

Ukr getting into NATO was not important, the war was. Sanctions and conflict were suppose to degrade Rus to the point where a good old CIA 'colour revolution' could be initiated resulting in a new US friendly Rus govt.

Zelensky said the global south was very impressed with his incursion into Russia's Kursk region lol.

So impressed he's having another go using his best forces and equipment to try and gain a bit more desolate Russian forestry.

Unfortunately even Spanish war bloggers were able to post the objectives and timing of the Ukr offensive 48 hour before it started.

Meanwhile, on the battlefronts in Ukraine itself, Zelensky's forces continue to be pushed backwards out of town after town and city after city.


At the start of the conflict Zelensky said Ukr had between 750,000 and 1 mil men at arms.

About 6 months ago the US said he had around 330,000.

Now apparently he's back up to 1 mil







The ramps on the Ukr APCs don't work in the cold so take them off, what could possibly go wrong

Trump's envoy Kellogg postpones trip to Kiev, might be having some problems making that quick deal after all?

Ukr sacrifices the city of Toretsk in exchange for some extra Russian forest in Kursk.

The only possible reason for doing this is because Toretsk was considered worth nothing to them but the PR value of gaining some more Rus land just might get Zelensky more NATO weapons and equipment and money.
